If you're going to play at the highest level in the game...
Snarky replied to Oklahoman's topic in General Discussion
dumped into pocket D....on the dance floor randomly....dancing like an idiot -
I am looking for a vampire dedicated group. I suppose I will have to put up with a number of ghouls and "les enfants du sang" but really a coven of vampires would be best...

Snarky replied to Oklahoman's topic in General Discussion
There is a quest in WoW where you register at the new inn in the latest expansion. 3 questions, about 10 options each. One of the questions... "Why are you here?" One of the options "You tell me, I never read the dialogue." You are not going to improve (significantly) the experience of players by posting boiler plate the first time (or first hundred times) they log in. You are not going to improve them by slashing 2xp in various ways. Oklahoman and a few others have a CHANCE of improving how people play. Because they lead and instruct. Some folks will learn from that. I think I have been on one of Oklahoman's leagues and had to be PMd to give the star back. I dont look! I am fiddling with stuff and moving my coffee cup to attack position. -
the rainbow is well represented in game. quite a few LGBTQ+ players are top notch gamers in my experience. do look up the costume contests posts and track those folks down. I am reasonably certain they can point you in the right direction. good luck.

I have standards. I never post the word "First" and I only post quality. ymmv...

Too true. On almost every PUG team I am on I am overgeared and know the fights so well. Unless the boneheads do something like pull the door on last mission of Posi 1 I can handle nearly anything, whether on a Blaster or w/e. For the Posi1 shadow fight I save huge team insp. A couple purps mez prot red and mebbe a yellow. Then just rain hell on the unsuspecting shadows. Particularly fun with a Dom. Just have them stand there and drool. -
Heh, I indulge a multi layered strategy for solving end issues. ToE sometimes goes in there. Depending on build room. It is a very good idea, but there are other options.

Just need one little npc from Atlas. Preferably looking like a school crossing guard. Walking back and forth across the area. Those things can push anyone Better yet a janitor pushing a broom! -
Is there a way to track your progress towards badges?
Snarky replied to Sheeshab's topic in General Discussion
In a zone? Tough. You have to manually track them. This is a true pain when you badge Goldside. They have 8 (or 9+) location badges, then plaques, then graffiti, and then river spots. I take out a scratch pad when I start those zones. Worse yet, the graffiti and the river (and the train) are multi zone puzzles. KEEP TRACK on paper!!! In a zone like Atlas? I just pick a direction and count them off in my head, plaques and badges. Atlas has a lot of plaques. Most zones have 2-3 max. If you finish and do not get the zone accolade and 5 merits you just open recent badges and compare to the zone map. go pick up the one you missed. But make double sure you got all plaques. That gets ugly if you miss one and cant tell until way later. -

Ya know, my first response to this I did not know it was a rockstar who posted. Yes Oklahoman. I mean you! You rock. YOU play at the highest level. I never would have thought a PUG league could do Really Hard Way Magisterium. Until I saw you drag the rabble through it and make it happen. YOU are an S tier player. I have been blessed (or cursed) to see a few other S tier players. Speed runners, Die Hard mode runners, ultimate badgers. It is exhilarating and a bit disheartening. Like listening to Unchained Melody by Righteous Brothers. So good. Then trying to sing...anything. Oof. I play better than I sing. That is not saying a lot. I'll be very generous and call myself an A tier player. With certain conditions. Not too much or too little coffee. Not distracted by a weird day. Have refreshed my memory on the content being run. The wind is blowing in the right direction. Nothing runs across the screen dragging a shiny object... You Oklahoman, and a select tier of players are the ones that play at the top level. The rest of us... Well...we play! -

This is a glass half something scenario. Unless you are dealing (with a lot!) of drunk(s) you are probably seeing new players. Which the community needs. Who knows, if they stay around they may figure out what the glowie sound means... -

A collapse in the market also lowers the game playability
Snarky replied to Diantane's topic in General Discussion
Yeah, i hit P2W and drop 40 mil there before I even decide if i like the concept, much less the powersets. I mean, I need my ports and toys! Then I might delete the thing, or more likely park it for 2 years if it bores me in a few hours. -
I just cant seem to get excited about Storm Blast.. am I alone?
Snarky replied to Heatstroke's topic in General Discussion
Why? No, really. Why? -
Depending on how long you been gone Doc Buzzsaw has a new arc blue and red. Soooo good.

something to sing about?

The stuff on the left has more synergy

You are 100% correct. You buy a attuned set on auction that is 30-50. You can slot it at 27. It will be level 30. As you level it is “attuned” to your level and levels with you. The set bonuses work from the level you slot it. If you drop level down to 15 to run a Posi TF the set bonuses disappear. All enhancers are squished when going down that far, but they still count. For something. The set bonuses only work from 27 and up

I struggle with this. Depending on what you are doing there are niche cases where a Brute is (might be) a better choice. SS damage dealer for instance. FS is the one AoE that got almost nothing in the great Tank give away. I have a Dark/Invul Brute which I believe is more effective than a Invul Dark Tank. You could argue not. But Dark Melee is an odd set and the synergy of Dark melee Invulnerable Armor is based off recharge and applying a ton of ST hard hitting attacks. For survival the Rech brings up dull pain fast and the Dark attack/hral keeps you topped off. Concept should be the guiding factor. But with the worst ATOs in the game and every Dev hating on them for the last 15 years Brutes are in a shit place.

Yomo's Whizbang Potpourri Extravaganza of a Giveaway! free giveaway contest By Yomo Kimyata June 19, 2020 in General Discussion
-
Welcome aboard! Lot of questions. Cash will help. Look up Yomo and his giveaway thread. 20 mil helps. Single Origin Enhancers are available at 5th? level now. They can be "levelled" with you. (button on enhancement screen) but it is spendy to keep redoing it. See Yomo above. Buy "attuned" sets from the Auction. They level with you. Most sets that are good are 30+ But there are some true gems in the lower levels depending on build. If your build needs a lower level set then slot it and do not over think it. (unless its on a main attack or something important) If you "outlevel" an SET (not a SO) the bonuses top out at that level. No other harm. There is a mids on this board. find the latest link in that section. Welcome and have fun!
